ABOUT SARASOTA
PHOTOGRAPHY
GROUP
Come along to our photo sessions to dust off your camera and get snap-happy with a professional photography instructor.

Brush up on your camera skills and learn new photography techniques whilst on a photo walk class with other local keen photographers!

We run two hour photography sessions based on a photography theme/technique/style and they take place in various locations around Sarasota.

New to photography? We also run a popular 3 hour Beginners Guide to Photography Class once a month. And once in a while we will run special niche 3 hour classes, for example, Astrophotography - so do subscribe to our newsletter to know when the next one is!

Who can attend? Open to all skill levels, from beginners to keen amateurs. The photography instructor is there to help you with camera settings and provide any advice you need.

What to bring? We recommend bringing a camera that has full manual mode or semi-manual modes (Aperture or Shutter Priority). Compact cameras and smartphones also welcome!

The meeting point and full details for the day are sent in the booking confirmation email to the email address you provide at time of booking.

Join the Sarasota Photography Facebook Group here to share your photos after the session.


We ask that everyone attending a meetup follows social distancing guidelines:

Stay home if you have any symptoms of COVID.
Keep 6 feet away from others.
Wear a suitable face mask or show a valid vaccination card indicating that you are vaccinated.
Don't make unnecessary physical contact with others.
Wash your hands regularly with alcohol-based sanitizer.

I liked that there were only 4 of us. Seven would have been more difficult. Wish the sunset would have been better. Not our control though I know. Aiden did a good job. Knowledgeable

Jessica did an outstanding job working with me and the other participants. All of us were new to using the manual camera settings. Jessica explain the different settings in a way that was easy to understand. I came away from the event with much more confidence in the use of my camera.

The beginners class was exactly what I needed to take me out of “auto” mode and begin to feel comfortable with the “manual” mode. Aiden had so much knowledge to impart (more than what I could absorb at one time!) but at the end of the 3 hours, the basics had sunk in! Enjoyed the 4 person intimate group setting and Thompson Park was a pleasant place to have a class.
